The Opportunity is not only a thought experiment about the things that are affecting us and society even when we think we aren't affected, it is also a blueprint on how we individually and as a human race get to that positive potential inside us all.
I started thinking about publishing a book that looked at the human condition for quite some time but it was not until the events of 2019 through 2022 that I had the realization that I had stumbled on a solution for humanities most serious problems that is simple and has never been proposed.

If humanity is destined to face some existential force that will take it out, that is one thing. However, if on the other hand humanity has the chance to endure, what a shame for it to instead, snuff itself out because it couldn't figure out how to treat itself with kindness and respect; and along the way depriving o many humans of a good experience.
For this reason, every word I write begins with appreciating humanity and the understanding that, as some might point out, that every human is capable of negative things, capable of bad, the opposite is also true, every human being is also very capable of good and manifesting positive things. Therefore, no matter what grim or bad one can say about humanity, the fact remains that every time one emphasizes that point, they are only pointing out that humanity is also capable of great goodness. My focus is on how to harness that positive aspect of humanity, which many people seem to think is humanities true destiny. The struggle of the environment is a given regardless of good or bad, it's how we face that environment and the potential for bad or good that reveals how human we really are.
There is much literature about humans as capable of greatness and the idea of the human race reaching a state of greater understanding and transcendence where the human race would finally shed many of the predominantly negative aspects of causing each other suffering and premature death.
The negative aspects of humanity have been written about extensively and the realities documented significantly. The historical record stands in stark to the mostly fictional and philosophical writings of humanity in some future that reflects the positive. The common feeling is that humans aspire to goodness and taking care of each other. So many things that humans do intrinsically, from taking care of their young for extended periods of time to taking care of the sick to providing aid or assistance to those humans that could never provide a recompense seem to stand diametrically opposed to the implementation of the system used for to represent value. Ultimately, there is a feeling of dichotomy between what humans feel and what some call "real life". Yet that "real life" is actually just a human made system that has proven to be inhuman to a majority of people. Calling this system "real life" diminishes the intrinsic and intuitive nature of the majority of humans. This leaves most to feel they have to teeter-totter between thinking like ruthless animals in a so-called "real life" pretense of civility while deep inside, and within ones intimate circles, if one is lucky enough to find others willing to drop all the ruthless indoctrination by the makeshift system of "real life" value.
For many reasons, including communicating what they feel inside and to bring hope, many writers and philosophers portray a bright future where humans work together and uplift each other and the challenges are outside of them, rather than internal to humans and any human on human power struggles.
However, there has been no concrete writing on achieving this uplifting state globally. There has been no documented plan that actually solves a majority of the problem without creating more problems and class divide.
This is the objective of my writing. To identify what we may have collectively missed by looking at everything with a fresh perspective to find tangible and achievable solutions today.
The Opportunity represents the most global, far-reaching, impactful, and concrete analysis and solution for a better human existence.
